Elite Girls & Damon Baker || Backstage

Last week we went behind the scenes on a shoot with Elite favourite Damon Baker and of course a posse of our beautiful girls. Damon is well known for creating shoots that little bit different and going that extra mile to realise his vision, so we can't say we were shocked when he unveiled his latest concept.  Nyasha, Therese, Maddie, Jessica and Tasha emerged from hair & make-up like distressed damsels escaping from a raging fire...exactly the look Mr Baker wanted to achieve. The styling was industrial to say the least and suited the mood perfectly, keep your eyes peeled for the final edit of the shoot, Elite has had an exclusive peek and we think you'll all be very excited to see it!

Hi Sushi Camden

Working all day on a shoot can be super tiring, so everyone involved has to keep their energy up all day...what better for this than some delish sushi? We were lucky enough to munch our way through some amazing treats from Hi Sushi in Camden, to get us through the day at today's shoot with Damon Baker. As you can see by the looks on their faces our Elite girls were more than happy with the surprise treats. Massive thank-you to Hi Sushi!

Caterina Ravaglia || Grit Magazine

Caterina Ravaglia is cover star of the latest issue of Grit Magazine. She is also star of this beautiful  accompanying editorial. Is This It? Models Review summed up Caterina perfectly "It happens pretty often with Caterina, and I guess it means something. It’s because of what she can express, she’s… somehow hypnotic, she really can draw your attention, and she does in such a peculiar way, not because of a fresh or gorgeous beauty, she does in her own unique way. That doesn’t mean she’s not attractive, absolutely, in fact I love her femininity a lot, she’s so young and at the same time interesting, inscrutable, enigmatic." They took the words right out of our mouth!
